Thank you for donating blood. It may save someone close to you.
Look around for evening blood drives, these happen often. Sometimes we go to a drive that lasts from 3PM to 7PM.(Or whenever the one who is chairing this drive can get people in to it. We'll work with you on this. And sometimes in the Sacramento area there have been 24 hour drives, and they were well attended) Lots of folks go there after they get off work. They can donate blood, then sit and chat with friends at the little goodie table while feeling that marvelous sense of accomplishment. And it is well deserved. Even one of our own staff had his premie twin sons helped by our blood donors!!! Now he is one of our biggest boosters!!
